Blog Name Change...Should I or Shouldn't I?

I've been toying with the idea of changing my blog's name for sometime now. I feel like the name doesn't reflect what my blog is about (not that it needs to be that way). But let me just give you a little bit of background on how this blog got started/got it's name.

I started this blog during my last semester of college as an assignment for a Communications class. My professor wanted us to create a blog, choose a topic, and write 2 posts per week relating to that topic. I chose music and I thought I'd be clever and title my blog something music related (the title of my blog comes from a song by a band called Bright Eyes). So, from September to December this blog was all about music. If you look through my blog archives those music posts are still there.

Not until January of this year did I actually start writing about fashion. After I finished college, I had a lot of free time on my hands so I decided to start blogging again.

So, my question to you guys is: Should I change the name of blog or leave it as is? Also, how did you all come up with a name for your blog?

  1. I had my name before my blog :), and when I created the blog I gave the name, that I already had. About changing the name, I don't know what to say, I don't think that you should change it.

  2. i think it's ok to change it if you feel that there is a more appropriate title. my blog kind of ended up making sense, but in the beginning zarna's runway didn't make too much sense bc i never posted picts of myself!

  3. i changed the name of my blog but only because i felt it needed changing. Only change it if you are sure it would be right to change it xx

  4. I like your blog´s name, but if you think it´ll be better to change go ahead !!
    I came up with the name after I chose to start a blog about fashion. And as I wanted to post about my clothes and that stuff I came up with "inside my closet" !!

  5. Hi Allie! Hmmmm....I understand the reasoning behind wanting to change it. Makes sense. Actually if it would help you to feel even more connected to fashion blogging then I would say yes. Either way...really is up to what you feel is right for you. Love the photo by the way!

  6. Maybe just replace the 'song' bit of the name with something relating to fashion or your name. x hivenn

  9. I love your blog name. Even if you decide to change it, I would just alter it slightly to suit your direction. A name is important, I definitely understand! :)

  10. I think it's a good idea to change it if you feel that there is a more appropriate title.My blog name is linked to my Etsy'shop and it is the name of my clothing collection, so I guess it makes sense...

  15. actually, I really like the name of your blog! fashion and songs are very similar, don't you think? I mean, good ones will last forever as they are timeless, others will only last for a season :)
